Hi everybody

I don't know where to post my problem but i did here. I've tried to load DSL 2.2 today and i'm new in linux. I have a really old computer with 31mo ram. 3gig. And 100mHz. That's why i've choosen Damn Small Linux. But I can't load it. I'll write exectactly what happens.

DSL load..

I press enter

And it's frozen. That's it.. For me, it's russian.
And... I've try low memory mode or something like that.. Anyway, it shows the same text but upward, it's written

hdd: no response (status=0x80)
hdd: no response (status=0x80)
Unable to handle the Kernell NULL pointer deference at virtual adress 00000000 printing eip:

*pde=00000000
(Then the text i've written here)

Maybe it can help?

Thanks a lot ! I hope someone will understand :O  :O

How about typing this in at the boot prompt:

failsafe mem=31M

(this assumes that you have 31MB of RAM.  "mem" is lowercase letters and the "M" at the end is an uppercase letter)

or maybe type in:

lowram mem=31M
